Dhaka: Bangladesh's Chief Justice Obaidul Hassan has announced his decision to resign following an ultimatum from student protesters. The resignation, which he has agreed to "in principle," was reported by Jamuna TV on Saturday.

Hassan, who was appointed as the head of the Supreme Court last year, is perceived as a loyalist to the ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The demand for his resignation came after protesters gathered outside the Supreme Court in Dhaka, urging him to step down.
